I cannot praise this project enough. I loved every minute of getting my hands dirty cleaning enclosures and preparing the meat for the lions. Having real hands on experience with such amazing animals everyday is simply unbelievable.

I made so many friends both with the other volunteers and with the guys who work permanently on the project and we still keep in touch. The friendly people I met added to the breathtaking experience of working with such beautiful animals in an equally beautiful country.

Truly eye opening.
Not to be missed!!

I felt safe and secure at all times and knew if anything did go wrong that I was with people who were able to assist in the best possible way.

The experience has made me a lot more laid back in my attitude to things and life in general. I appreciate all aspects of my life back home more now that I have experienced another culture and way of life.
